Which Factors Determine Spatial Segregation in the South American Opossums (Didelphis aurita and D. albiventris)? An Ecological Niche Modelling and Geometric Morphometrics Approach
Fig 5
Maps showing the level of niche similarity between the White-eared Opossum (D. albiventris) and the Brazilian Common Opossum (D. aurita) based on the S index in South America (top left), Atlantic forest (top right), Cerrado (bottom left) and in the Araucaria moist forest (bottom right). Warm colors indicate high niche similarity (values close to one) and cold colors indicate low niche similarity (values close to zero). The publicly available map layers were obtained from http://www.arcgis.com/features/features.html and http://maps.tnc.org/gis_data.html and the image prepared with the ArcMap 10 (ESRI Inc.).
